Chapter 780
Candace said.
"Eh! Mr. Luo Feng contacted you?"
Asta asked.
Candace: "That's right."
Asta nodded slightly and said:
"Alright, since Mr. Luo Feng said so, then I'll trouble you all."
After speaking, Asta displayed the video communication she had previously received to Candace, Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, and the others.
【Herta-sama fan-only news flash, broadcasting an emergency news.】
【The attack on Miss Herta finally has a follow-up; the "Annihilation Gang" claims responsibility for the whole thing and will take further action……】
【Duke Inferno: The Aeons of the universe have left their customs, unable to care for the tiny sentient beings. Only the wounded patron can let the worlds bathe in the fire of "Destruction".】
【Duke Inferno: There are always cowardly villains who try to refuse grace and escape the bestowal of injury.】
【Duke Inferno: Run, run as much as you want; no matter where you run, annihilation will eventually visit.】
【Ningguang: Such a communication can already be called a declaration of war.】
【Lumine: This goat-head with fire has something; he doesn't just want to find trouble with the space station, he wants to destroy the Herta Space Station directly.】
【Paimon: But why? Does the Herta Space Station have a grudge against him?】
【Jean: Bathe in the fire of "Destruction"…… saying such words, in other words, is he a believer of the Aeon of Destruction?】
【Kaeya: Speaking of which, Mr. Luo Feng seemed to have mentioned the Annihilation Gang slightly when he mentioned the Aeon of Destruction before, but he didn't reveal much.】
【Luo Feng: After all, the identity of this Duke Inferno is slightly awkward for the Aeon of Destruction;】
【it's normal that I didn't mention the Annihilation Gang too much when mentioning the Aeon of Destruction.】
【Charlotte: Awkward? Why is that?】
【Luo Feng: I think Dr. Ratio and Screwllum should be able to give the answer for me.】
"This person speaking…… why does he have a goat's head?"
"And his whole body is burning with fire; doesn't it hurt?"
Dehya said in surprise.
"This Duke Inferno, Ifrit, is a life form born from the already destroyed planet Tofet."
"He belongs to the Fire Demon race that is burning at all times."
"Answer: He will not feel uncomfortable because his whole body is burning."
Screwllum said.
"So... so that's how it is. Um, Mr. Screwllum is so rigorous."
Dehya scratched the back of her head and said.
To this, Screwllum nodded and didn't say much.
"So, why does this Duke Inferno want to declare war on the space station? Do the people here have a grudge against him?"
Dehya asked.
Greater Lord Rukkhadevata rested her chin on one hand and said softly:
"From the information revealed in this video."
"Duke Inferno and the Herta Space Station should have no grudge."
"He should be someone who worships the Aeon of Destruction."
"Wanting to destroy the Herta Space Station is probably because the last time the Antimatter Legion didn't destroy the Herta Space Station."
"So, he wants to destroy the Herta Space Station himself."
Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, as a god, has seen too many people who worship gods. She has seen behavior similar to Duke Inferno's before.
"So, Duke Inferno wants to destroy this place as a gift to the Aeon of Destruction?"
Kaveh said.
"I think an existence like the Aeon of Destruction, Nanook, shouldn't need any gifts."
"What He wants is just pure destruction."
Alhaitham muttered.
"Not bad." Dr. Ratio looked at Alhaitham in agreement and explained:
"Duke Inferno views the Aeon of Destruction as an emperor and calls Him a patron."
"However, they have never received a glance from the Aeon of Destruction……"
Speaking of this, Dr. Ratio thought that he had never received a glance from Nous either, and couldn't help but laugh at himself.
He shook his head and continued to say to everyone:
"In the end, Duke Inferno and his race are just a group of pitiful lunatics."
"I quite like the original Doctor's evaluation of the Annihilation Gang: The value Nanook sees in the so-called Annihilation Gang might not even be as much as an infant who deliberately breaks a vase."
【Paimon: Ah? The Aeon of Destruction not only didn't pay attention to Duke Inferno, but even felt that their value was not as much as an infant who deliberately breaks a vase; this is too miserable, right?】
【Arataki Itto: I don't quite understand, this Duke Inferno looks very powerful; since he dares to come to the Herta Space Station to find trouble, how can the things he can destroy be less than an infant who deliberately breaks a vase?】
【Kuki Shinobu: Boss, I think this should be a question of whether the act of destruction is pure.】
【Arataki Itto:???】
【Kuki Shinobu: An infant deliberately breaks a vase; such an act of destruction is relatively pure, while if Duke Inferno intends to use destroying the Herta Space Station as a gift to the Aeon of Destruction, such destruction is not pure enough.】
【Jean: Nanook's path is pure destruction; if Duke Inferno's path of destruction is not pure enough, Nanook naturally won't look at it.】
【Paimon: Hearing this, I feel this Duke Inferno is even more miserable. No, this guy is a bad guy, how can I sympathize with him.】
【Collei: Since this Duke Inferno hasn't received the recognition of the Aeon of Destruction, his power shouldn't be too strong, right? The risks Candace and the others face should be much smaller.】
【Luo Feng: Even if they haven't received Nanook's glance, it doesn't mean they are weak. You know, their birth is related to a genius from the Genius Society.】
【Luo Feng: And sometimes, the harm that fanatics and lunatics can cause might be higher than the harm normal people can create.】
【Dottore: Hmm? A member of the Genius Society created the Fire Demon race?】
After Greater Lord Rukkhadevata finished listening to Dr. Ratio and the others' description of Duke Inferno,
and thinking of the Herta puppet and space station researcher disappearance events Asta mentioned earlier, she said to everyone:
"Since Duke Inferno is a Fire Demon, I imagine he is good at using fire."
"Miss Asta mentioned earlier that there were phenomena of fire appearing before Miss Herta's puppets and space station staff disappeared."
"Based on this, it is indeed highly likely that he is the perpetrator."
"However, he did not use absolute power to ignite the Herta Space Station."
"Instead, he sent this video to everyone's phone after completing a series of things at the current stage."
"So, he wants to "ignite" the Herta Space Station in another way."
Dehya: "Ignite in another way?"
Alhaitham: "The power of public opinion, a crisis of trust."
Dr. Ratio nodded in agreement with Greater Lord Rukkhadevata and Alhaitham, saying:
"That is indeed the case! The Herta Space Station has just experienced the threat of the Antimatter Legion."
"The space station staff, who originally thought that the Herta Space Station would be absolutely safe with Miss Herta's presence, will have doubts about the Herta Space Station."
"If such a thing happens again at this time, the staff's trust in the space station will be greatly reduced again."
"If this matter is not handled properly, the Herta Space Station will probably face an unprecedented crisis of trust, leading to a series of problems that will drive the Herta Space Station to collapse."
Dehya's eyes widened, and she said in surprise:
"It's that serious!"
"If only there was something we could do."
"There are indeed some things you can do." Dr. Ratio said, then looked at Greater Lord Rukkhadevata:
"Miss Buer, can you please come with me to investigate this matter?"
Dehya: "Eh! Isn't Miss Asta coming?"
Greater Lord Rukkhadevata shook her head and said:
"It is not convenient for Miss Asta to investigate now."
"If the space station staff see something from Miss Asta's expression, the news might spread even more seriously."
"And she stays here, I imagine she can also suppress the spread of news."
"Professor Ratio and we go out to investigate, so we don't have to worry about these."
"We go out to investigate, and the Herta Space Station staff will only think we are going sightseeing." ===== CHAPTER 781 =====
